Most South Africans (black and white) have been affected by crime directly, or indirectly. Most white South Africans knows someone, a family member or a friend that has been murdered in an apparent robbery, burglary or hi-jacking.

Sounds like Guntang has got a bit of an edge to it. If evryone has a story like yours then surely there would be a popular revolt / revolution by now? Surely if the people are going through that then revolution is in the air right?

Yeah true, but surely after reading the above atating "just a few examples of what we deal with here, everyone here has a story to tell without fail. I count my friends & family as lucky as we are still here to live our lives, many others are not as fortunate" then how can there not be a revolt/revolution? At least an attempted coup? If your family are being murdered then surely you'd take up arms yeah?
Maybe the minorities are so worn down that they offer no resistance. It's hard to believe how the African whites and Indians are taking it when you consider they beat everywhere in southern Africa at one time and made it home, even making the British military during the Boer Wars have their greatest shock in hundreds of years. I don't get it.

It is psychological warfare for the ones who come to know of the levels of evil and sheer demonic hatred.It shatters the lives of the survivors too

This thread is extremely telling. There is another thread that is popular right now titled, "Where Are We Going With This?", maybe this thread is the answer to that question.
Since what I am hearing from the majority of the posters here seems to echo what the Black Africans were saying years ago, when they were the ones being slaughter, that this may be a good place for a coming together.
It should be easier to work together when both sides have experienced the same pain, but it never is, is it? That is because we are selfish people, and we only see the wrongs done to us. We only care about our own pain and lost. It is the reason why we will always be at war with someone. Because you did it to me, so now I have to do it to you.
South Africa is amazing. It seems to be the only place were they have no go zones and it is accepted as fact. Too bad there are no Islamist there, then this thread would be lit up with folks pointing out the wrongness of most of these post. But is not about religion, it is about color. Black Africans against White Africans, so all the veiled and not so veiled racism is allowed to flow free.
Yeah. My post is the one that most of you were waiting for. The one calling you out as the racist that you claim not to be. But we both know better. You don't need me to tell you, you know what you are.
Whoops! My mistake. You are not racist, you are just justifiable haters of injustice, killing, and land grabbing, but only when you are on the receiving end, and you have history to prove you are the rightful owners, because things were perfect when there was apartheid and slavery, and you were the lords and masters.
Hopefully one day we will stop winding the clock and allow the pendulum to remain still. Maybe then we stand a chance at putting this insanity behind us.

I just don't get it. Only 20 years since the apartheid finished, there must be hundreds of thousands of military trained ex forces. Plus the Indians, Jews, English and Africaaners have the wealth still yeah? Plus education/expertise has to be on their side still? I just don't get how they can take such a situation without a fatal blow in return. The minorities may be outnumbered but with with serious concentration surely they could change their fortune? The will must be there?
You look at how Jews were attacked 70/80 myears ago all around the world be forces massively bigger than their often 1% /

Agreed. I'm always amazed at how obtuse people become when thinking humans are any different from an organized group of animals in the wild. Let's look at a pride of lions for example. If the two males who are at the head of the pride are losing their strength, power, and ability to secure the best feeding grounds then another set of male lions will begin attacking the two older / weaker males. Eventually the invading male lions will kill both and take over the pride.
This ensures the strongest males will continue to breed superior offspring which directly correlates to lions remaining as an animal species on this planet. If it worked the way socialist liberal snowflakes wanted the older males would continue breeding inferior cubs who eventually would become extinct because over the course of their evolution they would simply become a weak species and die out.
Why are humans exempt from this same course of natural selection? If we allow other nationalities to selectively target their fellow citizens because they view them as inferior then who are we to stop them? Some might argue that we should head off their rise to power so that one day they do not become powerful enough to challenge us and our way of life. With this point I would agree, however, it still proves my point about the process of natural selection. Then we would be called upon to defend what we hold sacred and if we are the stronger of the two then we will prevail. If not then we don't deserve to prevail. Natural selection.
EDIT: I will take the "it's us or them" a little farther. Suppose you are a father or mother and a person is threatening to hurt your child. Your survival and protective instinct is going to hopefully take over to where you actively prevent harm of your child. Even if that results in you killing another human being then so be it. Natural selection is about a species ability to adapt to their environment and remain strong and prosper. It's the very primal core of what lies at the heart of any species on this planet and humans are no different.

There are only about 3+half million of us.So many able bodied people left after 1994,leaving behind the ones too poor to leave.The average people who has to work every day all day long and eke out a living and fall into bed exhausted every night,hoping to wake up unslaughtered. At least half of the white population would be children and elderly.And we are spread out over the country.And this generation of our youth has gone soft,interested only in selfies and social media.It is not possible.

No it was given every opportunity in its development by colonialism, just like the rest of the conquered world
